Unfortunately, everyone else who shares the road gets to be a beta tester too, whether they want to be or not. You thought you were driving to work, but you are really providing system inputs to see if the Tesla will react properly or not. Just have to hope your test inputs don’t “crash the system” - you might not be…

I don’t agree with that methodology though. Things that break early on are usually defective parts or assembly and not indicative of long term costs which are mostly due to wear and tear.

I’m convinced that all these people who hate the Mako so much are just too incompetent to drive it properly. There, I said it.

Popcorn being paired with things is fine. Maybe not my bag, but fine. Popcorn in a salad, soaked in dressing? Nope. Sorry. The “’But it’s going to get soggy!’ argument is total malarkey’” argument is total malarkey. Chips in salad retain their crunch for a good long while. Croutons also. But once they are soggy,…

Breaking News : Republicans are full of shit.

I lane split in the DC area in the summer when I am stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic, laws be damned. When traffic is barely moving on the Beltway and it’s 90++ degrees, I’m at greater risk of a heat stroke than I am of a car accident while splitting. I’m still not going to go over 15-20 mph, and I tend to prefer the…

Kristi Noem is a vile piece of shit, and I hope she gets a rash on her face that never goes away.

Apples are flowering plants that produce seeds in a small group and are easy to cross pollinate. They also tend to be a sturdy fruit. Bananas, like all export fruit, need to survive transport over great distances without turning to pulp or mush. The ones people like are seedless, meaning they are from cuttings. Wild…

Any cop or military preson displaying 3% iconography should be removed from service. Any cop with punisher gear should be removed from their job. What these images and ideas represent can’t sit side by side with “justice” or public service those jobs require. You can’t work for the state and encourage vigilantism and…

“Cut bait, start on a replacement immediately.”

fuck cancer.

I’ve been sorta in the market for a (normal) Z3. Generally higher mileage, late 90s examples are selling for about $8k give or take.

That isn’t all we need, it’s where we start from.

I guess the real question is whether you want to push Biden to be better, or punish him for his past. You’re stuck with him as President. You can go after Democrats for every terrible thing they have done, and every good thing they failed to achieve. And if you succeed in punishing them enough, your reward is…

Best reform idea I heard was to make cops individually responsible for civil settlements against them. Effectively this would mean carrying their own malpractice insurance, which would take care of the revolving door - no need for the government (state or federal) to keep a list of cops fired for this kind of shit,…

I’m pretty sure CPS wherever she lives is already overwhelmed and she would just be viewed as a spoiled rich brat. I’m not saying it’s right, but to social workers this situation probably pales in comparison to the rest of their cases. I would think this is a prime situation for family therapy, but given her history…

They were heading the right way but on the wrong path. It’s not the gas guzzler tax that’s the issue, raising the gas tax would hurt the poor the most, they are least likely to be able to afford a car with decent to good MPG and would end up paying more in gas taxes than someone who could afford a new high MPG car.…

What we NEED to do is work on BRANDING. “Defund the police” to your average Joe sounds like we’re gonna fire all cops and live in a lawless hellscape. How about “Police Improvement” or “demanding a gold standard for law enforcement”? Make it sound like we’re GIVING people something rather than taking it away. The…

I know you left off Mutant League Football because of your EA ties, but that is the best goofy football game. It had the advantage of being an actual good game, since it was a reskin of the Madden series. Most of these are pretty awful to actually play, but MLF was at it’s core a great football game already.
